Movie Reviews of They Call Me Mister Tibbs!
Movie Review: Years later
Summary: 5 Stars
When I first saw this movie years ago, I did not like it. Since then I saw it again and absolutely fell in love with Sidney. What happened to these type of actors today? Hardly any of them them except Paul Newman, and several others, have that type of quality that Sidney has. Maybe it is called 'paying their dues or practicing their craft'. Not sure what it is but this movie, was great.
Summary of They Call Me Mister Tibbs!
In this suspenseful sequel to In the Heat of the Night, Academy AwardÂ(r) winner* Sidney Poitier reprises his role as the intrepid investigator who, this time, must solve a puzzling murder in the City by the Bay. Featuring an original score by Quincy Jones and co-starring OscarÂ(r) winner** Martin Landau and Edward Asner (JFK), They Call Me Mister Tibbs! is Â"an absorbing mystery that ranks as one of the bestÂ" (Boxoffice). When a prostitute is murdered in San FranciscoÂ's ritzy Nob Hill district, an anonymous tip implicates minister and political crusader Reverend Logan Sharpe (Landau). Lt. Virgil Tibbs (Poitier), who has known Sharpe for many years, asks to be assigned to the case in hopes of clearing his friendÂ's name. So begins the detectiveÂ's journey through a twisted maze of baffling evidence, frantic chases, deadly gunfire and bad alibis. Before long, Tibbs finds himself bitterly torn between his duty as a copÂ...and his loyalty to a friend. *1963: Actor, Lilies of the Field; 2001: Honorary Award **1994: Supporting Actor, Ed WoodSimilar DVD Movies
